Powerpoint show on secondary screen

K

Keme

Using Powerpoint '97 and -2000 on Win-98SE and -2000Pro.

I have a setup displaying Powerpoint presentation on an info-TV circuit.
The presentation is regularly updated by office staff. Currently the TV
out is set to clone the monitor image. To hide the editing from TV
output, I want to use split screen output, with primary screen for the
powerpoint (editing/control) window and the presentation sent to the
secondary screen.

I've searched for options to send the presentation to the secondary
screen, but to no avail. Even when I drag the main window to the
secondary screen, the presentation goes to the primary. (Using this
setup - change TV to primary screen - is an option, but this is far from
optimal.)

Is it possible (in any Office version) to redirect presentation output
to a secondary screen? (License-wise I can upgrade to any version of MS
Office, but that may involve hardware upgrade in tight space, which I
don't want to do if it doesn't help.)

You might want to ask this in the PPT newsgroup.

You might also want to check Chirag Dalal's add-ins. If anything will do it,
one of his will. You might need to email him to ask about the various
options though. I'm not sure if you'd need PowerShow, PowerKiosk, or
something else. http://officeone.mvps.org
